Spearman
Pick this if: You want the warrior that stands its ground.
Spearman, in short
recorded for this site, not from the exportthe exact formulas ›You stand in the middle of the monsters instead of away from them, and you survive that.
What it brings3
Spear Mastery tops the mastery scale out at 10 and adds a 20% chance to ignore a monster’s weapon defence.- Iron Will is +50 weapon defence and a 35% chance to ignore knockback for five minutes. Knockback is what breaks a spear swing.
- Final Attack: Spear hits for 350% at max and gives you back a tenth of it as HP.
Watch out for3
- Spear and polearm are two weapon lines, not one. Pick before you spend.
- In Closed Online Test 2 this was the fork that led to Dragon Knight and its Hyper Body.
- A chance to ignore weapon defence on the spear, +20 speed on the polearm: that is the whole difference between the two masteries.
Where the points go
- STRmainSTR is your damage on every warrior weapon, and DEX is both what lets you hold it and what makes it land.
- DEXsecondNot spare points.
- never comes back, and what catches people is the requirement on the weapon rather than the damage: the Gear tab prices every rung.
Spear or Polearm: pick one
No point in one counts towards the other.
Every Spearman skill
iHow to read a skill card
The line under each name is what the skill does at its last rank, read off the row. max N beside the name holds that against what a single point buys, which is the argument for spending the rest of them.
Anywhere on a card opens it, for every rank, its reach and what it rolls. Words like rank, mastery or booster are underlined wherever they are used and carry their own explanation.
121points earned, level 30–70190ranks the 8 skills hold69ranks you cannot afford
You cannot max everything, and nothing in the game says so. For an order to spend them in, take one somebody has played.
Spearman builds ›iHow the bill is worked out
One point at the advancement and three a level, until level 70 stops this pool filling. The ranks are every rank the 8 skills hold between them, which is why the two numbers are not the same one counted twice.
Choosing what to leave out is the whole of building this class. The builds page is where somebody else's choice is written down, with the levels they made it at.
Damage3iWhat "Damage" groups together
The tooltip states a damage or healing number. Mostly these are what you press to kill things; one or two are buffs that add damage rather than deal it, which is why the heading says damage and not attacks.

Becoming a Spearman at level 30

Be a level 30 Warrior.
Every quest below is gated at level 30, and the chain only appears for the Warrior branch. There is nothing to do before then except arrive.

Having reached level 30 and mastered the way of the Swordsman, I feel the urge to learn even more.

Test of Qualification
The Warrior Job Instructor at West Rocky Mountain IV seems ready to give me a test to prove whether I deserve to become stronger.

The instructor also stands in Warrior's Rocky Mountain, which is the hidden area the test happens inside. The export carries no drop table for the quest items, so which monster in there drops them is not something this snapshot can tell you.

Proof of Qualification
Now that I've passed the Warrior Job Instructor's test, I should have proven my strength!

The Proof of a HeroHanded to you when you accept the quest
The chain ends where it started. The snapshot names who gives a quest and never who it is handed back to, so returning to the advisor is the game's convention rather than a row.

Choose Fighter, Page or Spearman.
Passing the test is what opens the choice; the choice itself is not a quest. Spearman is one of them - the others are one click away and each has this same page.
In Closed Online Test 2 the second job you took also decided your third: each one led to exactly one 3rd job. The Public Release has no 3rd job.
- 9,560 EXP for the chain
CoT2: From Closed Online Test 2 (Beta 2). Not in the Public Release; kept here as a record.After this: 3rd job, in Closed Online Test 2’s files only
The Public Release has no 3rd job. In Closed Online Test 2, a Spearman went on to Crusader, Dragon Knight or White Knight at level 70, and each one’s skills are kept on its page with the test’s numbers.
Even the test’s files never carried the advancement itself: no quest chain, no instructor and no level. Level 70 is the series’ own number rather than a row in any export.

What to wear
the full item browser ›The weapon ladderiHow the ladder was built
Every weapon the class can hold, with everything that is not an upgrade removed: a rung is a weapon that beats anything you could already be carrying at its level, so “gain” is what it adds over the rung above it. Sidegrades and later weaker weapons are left out and the item browser still has them. The ladder starts from level 1 on purpose - the rungs below your level are the ones you arrived holding.

Best armour for STR, by slotiHow these were picked
The highest STR in each slot a Warrior can wear, then attack, then defence.
Nothing is left out for being low level, because armour does not stop being wearable: the best piece in several of these slots wants half the level of the worst, and the level on each row is when you can put it on.
Where the game ships one piece as a male and a female version, both are named and the numbers are the same either way.
